It sells estrogen-free, doctor-formulated intimate care - lotions, serums, lubricants, bath soaks and menopause supplements - designed for women navigating dryness, discomfort and hormonal shifts across menopause, postpartum and everyday life. The brand pairs its patent-pending, peptide-based formulas with education and community, and says its products are recommended by 6,000+ OB/GYNs and pelvic-floor, oncology and sexual-medicine specialists.
Tiny Health
Tiny Health is an Austin-based health company that built the first at-home gut microbiome test designed for babies, then extended the same clinically-validated science to children, pregnant people, adults and longevity. It pairs DNA sequencing of stool and vaginal samples with age-specific reference ranges and personalized, research-backed recommendations, aiming to catch early microbiome imbalances linked to eczema, allergies, digestive issues and chronic conditions before they take hold.
Evvy
Evvy is a precision women's health company building the first AI-powered vaginal healthcare platform around a CLIA-certified, at-home metagenomic vaginal microbiome test. Founded in 2021 by Stanford alums Priyanka Jain and Laine Bruzek, Evvy pairs state-of-the-art testing that screens for 700+ bacteria and fungi with clinician-reviewed results, personalized prescription treatment, and one-on-one health coaching. By generating one of the largest datasets on female biomarkers, Evvy aims to close the gender health gap - starting with conditions like bacterial vaginosis that have been chronically under-researched.
